On December 7, 1941, at 7:48 a.m. in Hawaii, Japanese forces launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the American naval base in Honolulu. Fighter planes dropped bombs and torpedoes, destroying or damaging almost 20 naval vessels, including eight battleships and over 300 airplanes.

The next day, President Franklin D. Roosevelt delivered his famous "Day of Infamy" speech, marking the United States' entry into World War II.

We remember those who lost their lives that day, and throughout WWII, and all from the of who answered the call to serve.
